Book excerpt: From viewing medicine as a team sport, to the author's experience going undercover as "Karen" to gain insight on the experience of attending a child birthing class, Tasting YOUR OWN Medicine: How to Advocate for Yourself in Healthcare Settings is a book meant to empower individuals to take control of their medical decisions and advocate for themselves in conversations with their health professionals. It includes research and narratives from people who have experienced the healthcare system as patients themselves or on behalf of loved ones, and from professionals working within the system, including some of the author's own personal experiences as a patient. Being inquisitive and curious about your care does not make you a bad patient. Providing patients with that voice both as a loved one and a health professional can be immensely valuable in their ultimate outcomes and benefit all parties involved. Tasting YOUR OWN Medicine is a nonfiction book that speaks to everyday adolescents and adults, trained patient advocates, and healthcare professionals who want to look at patient advocacy, empowerment, and support in a whole new way.
Download or read book Dialogic Pedagogy and Polyphonic Research Art written by Eugene Matusov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-04 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents voices of educators describing their pedagogical practices inspired by the ethical ontological dialogism of Mikhail M. Bakhtin. It is a book of educational practitioners, by educational practitioners, and primarily for educational practitioners. The authors provide a dialogic analysis of teaching events in Bakhtin-inspired classrooms and emerging issues, including: prevailing educational relationships of power, desires to create a so-called educational vortex in which all students can experience ontological engagement, and struggles of innovative pedagogy in conventional educational institutions. Matusov, Marjanovic-Shane, and Gradovski define a dialogic research art, in which the original pedagogical dialogues are approached through continuing dialogues about the original issues, and where the researchers enter into them with their mind and heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel Justified in Christ shines a light on backsliding Christians who claim to be religious, yet their actions betray their words. Jenifer says she is Christian, but is easily tempted away from God. She commits such blunders as fornication and drug use, even resorting to thievery and prostitution to make ends meet. Jenny takes perverse pleasure in gossiping about others, slandering their names, and betraying her friend Abigail by spreading false information about her. Jenny is easily influenced by her friend Anne, who teaches her satanic practices and how to better ensnare men. Jenny moves from man to man, still naive enough to believe she can find love and won’t fall victim to heartbreak. Though she has taken a false path, Jenny comes from a religious home where her father was a well-known native doctor. Her family was into ancestral and idolatry worship, but she ran away from home out of contempt for this lifestyle. Later Jenny repents from her wickedness and turns over a new leaf, focusing on God after learning life’s lessons the hard way. But is it too late?

Download or read book Gathering Medicines written by Judith Farquhar and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 2000s, the central government of China encouraged all of the nation’s registered minorities to “salvage, sort, synthesize, and elevate” folk medical knowledges in an effort to create local health care systems comparable to the nationally supported institutions of traditional Chinese medicine. Gathering Medicines bears witness to this remarkable moment of knowledge development while sympathetically introducing the myriad therapeutic traditions of southern China. Over a period of six years, Judith Farquhar and Lili Lai worked with seven minority nationality groups in China’s southern mountains, observing how medicines were gathered and local healing systems codified. Gathering Medicines shares their intimate view of how people understand ethnicity, locality, the body, and nature. This ethnography of knowledge diversities in multiethnic China is a testament to the rural wisdom of mountain healers, one that theorizes, from the ground up, the dynamic encounters between formal statist knowledge and the popular authority of the wild.
Download or read book Food Over Medicine written by Pamela A. Popper and published by BenBella Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-06-11 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes recipes from Chef Del Sroufe, author of the bestselling Forks Over Knives—The Cookbook and Better Than Vegan Nearly half of Americans take at least one prescription medicine, with almost a quarter taking three or more, as diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and dementia grow more prevalent than ever. The problem with medicating common ailments, such as high blood pressure or elevated cholesterol, is that drugs treat symptoms—and may even improve test results—without addressing the cause: diet. Overmedicated, overfed, and malnourished, most Americans fail to realize the answer to lower disease rates doesn't lie in more pills but in the foods we eat.With so much misleading nutritional information regarded as common knowledge, from “everything in moderation" to “avoid carbs," the average American is ill-equipped to recognize the deadly force of abundant, cheap, unhealthy food options that not only offer no nutritional benefits but actually bring on disease. In Food Over Medicine, Pamela A. Popper, PhD, ND, and Glen Merzer invite the reader into a conversation about the dire state of American health—the result of poor nutrition choices stemming from food politics and medical misinformation. But, more important, they share the key to getting and staying healthy for life. Backed by numerous scientific studies, Food Over Medicine details how dietary choices either build health or destroy it. Food Over Medicine reveals the power and practice of optimal nutrition in an accessible way.
